Membership Policies and Agreement What is HelpNet? HelpNet is a cooperative effort of Maine grassroots, community-based organizations and individuals who work with them. We all have questions and problems as we use computers, both off-line and on the Internet. Through HelpNet we are pooling our skills and resources to get answers to our common questions, so we can make technology work for us. Who Can Be a Member? HelpNet membership is open to grassroots, community-based, and non-profit organizations, and to individuals who work with these groups in eastern and central Maine. Individuals and organizations from outside this area are also welcome to join, provided that they have a connection to and share share a community of interest with the eastern and central Maine members. The Basic Obligations of Membership Open participation. The most important membership obligation is an agreement with HelpNet's mission of building and sustaining a collaborative, self-governing for the mutual benefit of members and the constituencies they serve.

Member conduct. Members may not use HelpNet for any illegal purpose, or to harass other members or interfere with their use of the network.
